The highest offer price is only part of your decision as a seller. I suggest comparing the obligations and unresolved conditions alongside the price before deciding which proposal you can accept.
Across Herndon single-family homes, condominiums, townhouses and apartments, the sold-to-list-price percentage for September 2026 was 99.3%. The median sold price for September 2026 was $755,000. Months of inventory stood at 2.28 for that reporting month. The report recorded 58 sales in September 2026.
The sold-to-list-price measure does not establish the strength of an individual proposal. An offer's financing and inspection requirements need their own review rather than being treated as interchangeable details. My focus would be what each proposal asks you to accept, what remains uncertain and whether its timing is workable.
Compare offers received using the same categories: price, financing requirements, inspection requirements, deposit and proposed closing date. Identify any unclear terms with me before responding so you understand what needs clarification or further negotiation. Discuss likely sale expenses and the mortgage payoff to estimate your net proceeds before deciding how to respond.
